France is seeking to control immigration from populations that do not assimilate (i.e. Islamists):
France, like other European countries, is taking a harder look at the immigrants it lets in.
The drive toward "selective" immigration is inspired by electoral politics, by fears that some immigrants are not integrating and may even be vectors for terrorism and militant Islam, and by widely shared concerns that immigrants overtax welfare systems and compete for scarce jobs.
...If passed, the law would form part of France's multi-pronged offensive against clandestine immigration that also includes stepped-up border controls and deportations. Under Sarkozy, deportations have increased 72 percent over the past two years, with a record 20,000 illegal immigrants expelled in 2005.
"France cannot be the only country in the world that refuses to adapt its immigration policy to its economic needs and its capacity to absorb new arrivals," Sarkozy said recently. "We cannot continue to welcome people whom we have neither jobs nor housing to offer."
The AP story linked uses all the usual tricks to try to oppose this policy, e.g. describing a nice immigrant and saying that the new policy would have denied him a home in France. AP of course, could care less if militant Islam destroys Europe via the policy of immigrating and then refusing to assimilate.
If even France can control immigration from Islamists who oppose their religion to the laws of the nation to which they immigrate, then surely the U.S. can as well.

Wow. You can't even pretend you want to conduct a discussion in a civilized manner, can you?
Who exactly are you accusing of being indifferent to the destruction of Europe? Is it every person who works for AP? Just the upper management?
